  • Title: Metastatic spread of benign intracranial meningioma.
    Author: Tognetti F, Donati R, Bollini C.
    Journal: J Neurosurg Sci; 1987; 31(1):23-7. PubMed ID: 3625286.
    Abstract:
    A case of benign meningioma of the superior sagittal sinus is reported, which recurred three times during a period of six years. At the time of the first recurrence the overlying bone was eroded and the tumor grew subcutaneously; the second recurrence was associated with a pulmonary metastatic deposit of extraordinary size. The literature dealing with remote extracranial spread of meningiomas is briefly reviewed.
